The submissions this week were impressive as usual and it turned out dope that none of them sound anything like the other. The 3 videos were some of the best I’ve seen in weeks and the two audio posts have been in rotation for me since I came across them. These 5 artists made it out of hundreds of submissions, so salute to Roq’y Tyraid, Uno Hype, Dylan Owen, Chai Tulani and Kings Dead

***

Kings Dead – So What
Boston duo Kings Dead consists of MC Sonny Shotz and producer Alexander Mendoza. Dope track and dope visual to match.

***

Uno Hype – Shinigami (prod. EOM)
Maryland representative Uno Hype gets off the grid and out in nature in the video for Shinigami, but he should still be on your radar.

***

Dylan Owen – Everything Gets Old (prod. Skinny Atlas)
New York spitter Dyaln Owen gives an introspective glimpse into growing older, you should definitely check it out.

***

Roq’y Tyraid – Nonpareil
Phoenix’s Roq’y Tyraid lambastes this track, period. SHEESH!

***

Chai Tulani – 5 A.m
Chicago artist Chai Tulani just dropped off an 8 track EP called Pocket Juice. The lead track “5 A.m” vibes so hard while Chai pays homage to his team and the grind.
